She also made $29,000,000 in 2022 for herself, cause she worked so hard and made so many cars herself. Ha
Keep these CEO memes coming. These assholes need to have a spotlight shown on them. A company is not a person, a company is ran by people.
They could’ve paid for all of the UAW’s asks and then some with just that but it’s less about the money and more about trying to look strong. The reality is they are nothing without their workers, no company is.
Just like how the losses the entertainment industry has suffered due to the writers and actors strike could have paid for their demands 10 times over. This is 100% about stripping the power from workers and keeping the power in the C suite.
I wonder if the companies were expecting a recession to strengthen their hand. Turns out, we don’t need them.
A tale as old as mankind. Like 20 years ago I saw a movie. Some indie thing from France or Spain. The kind of shit that gets highly acclaimed at the Cannes film festival. In one scene there was a bricklayer reciting a poem (from the top of my head and loosely translated from German):
My grandfather was a bricklayer. My father was a bricklayer. I am a bricklayer, too. But, tell me, where is my house?
That allways stuck with me.
I did some brain jogging and I think in German it went like this:
Mein Vater war ein Maurer. Sein Vater war ein Maurer. Auch ich mauere Tag ein Tag aus. Doch sag mir, wo steht mein Haus?
Which would translate to
My father was a bricklayer. His father was a bricklayer. I, too, wall up day in and day out. But tell me, where is my house?
But I can’t figure out what the movie was.
